Previously on Shadowhunters. What is Valentine doing to me? Not Valentine.

The angel is crying out for help.

I had to get Jason. Don't make this harder than it already is. What do you

me to do, Simon?

Look me in the eye and tell me you don't have any feelings for him.

Valentine Morgan is armed.

By order of the clavier hereby remanded to the guard and Idris.

Where's the angel with Valentine?

Hello, father.

I've spent years clinging to my memories of freedom, imagining what I'd feel

when I finally made it back.

Would I be happy?

Angry?

Hard as I try, I could never quite picture it.

In the end, I felt nothing.

Just the unforgiving cold of the winter air.

It's true what they say.

You can never go back home.

Sit.

Why bring me here?

Because I realized the thing that was missing was you.

You made me what I am, Father.

Everything you did to me created this.

And now it's my turn to repay the favor.

Anybody dead in here?

Oh, my God.

Hey, what's the point of being a daylighter if all you do is look around

dark?

I don't know.

I'm starting to think there isn't a point.

Have you been sending e -vites out to this pity party?

Luke, tell me about what happened with Clary.

You want to talk about it?

If I say no, would you go away?

Probably not.

I was torn up about everything that happened with Clary, and I sat on a

Look, nobody said being a down -rolder would be easy.

We all make mistakes, especially when it comes to love.

You just need something to clear your head.

Happy hour at the Hunter's Moon.

No, thanks. That's what got me into it.

I'm fasting for Yom Kippur.

It's the Jewish Day of Atonement.

Essentially, you don't need anything to atone for your sins for the past year.

Judging on my last year, I have a lot to atone for. But you're going to go to

temple?

You're a vampire. Isn't that some sort of fire hazard?

No, it's just a family dinner.

My Bubby Helen's coming in from Florida, so I have to go.

Dad, wasn't it you just saying I needed something to help clear my head?

Yeah, but a family dinner wasn't exactly what I had in mind.

I mean, we...

We've been over this. For a down -worlder, depression can be seriously

dangerous. What if you end up hurting somebody?

My family's always got left.

I need to feel normal again.

Even if it's for a few hours.

Hey,

can we talk?

About what? About how you keep walking out of a room every time I walk in.

I haven't. Yeah, you have, Clary. And look, I get it, but we can't avoid each

other forever.

Chase, Valentine's missing.

Okay, we have more important things to deal with right now.

Any word from Magnus or Luke?

No. Valentine's free. The Downwell cabinet has been holding secluded

the Sealy Court.

That's not good.

You think anything good happens in the Sealy Court?

A cleavage in the lip would go unpunished. The Inquisitor has sent an

assess the situation.

Chances are they'll be the ones replacing me as the head of the

Not if we can recapture Valentine.

Sebastian and all available personnel are searching.

We already know Duncan managed to hijack the portal.

If he was Luke's accomplice, he could have been orchestrating the secret

transfer all along.

Listen, I appreciate the effort, but Valentine escaped on my watch. I deserve

take the heat for it.

This isn't your fault, it's mine. I was the one in charge of the transfer. We

both were.

Look, Alec, you are a good leader. You can't just let Imogen fire you over

something you didn't do. Alec will do as he's ordered.

Dad? What are you doing here?

I'm the Claib's envoy.

We need to talk.

I never expected it to be you.

You're my son.

I thought it was my responsibility to deliver your orders personally.

Allowing Valentine's escape was a lapse in leadership, but our top priority is

tracking him down.

We believe he may still be in New York, and I convinced Imogen that you know the

city better than anyone in Idris.

You'll remain head of the Institute.

That's it? For now.

But Imogen is keeping you on a tight leash.

Don't give her an excuse to give Aldertree his old job back.

I appreciate the help.

I don't think this makes up for what you did to Mom.

Alec.

Your mother and I have always had a complicated relationship. Not

You cheated on her.

There's a reason she returned to Idris as soon as you got here.

I made a mistake.

I never meant to hurt you.

But I fell in love.

You, of all people, should know what that's like. Magnus isn't an affair.

I shouldn't have said anything.

We can argue all about family drama once we find Valentine.

But until then, I have an institute to run.

Alec. You can go.

You asked Alec to assign both of us to search Staten Island?

Yeah, I needed someone I could trust.

You were the one who said finding Valentine had to be a priority.

Yeah, but I didn't mean we had to search together.

Wait.

This is Idris.

Yeah.

You really think Valentine's is Staten Island?

No, but I'm pretty sure the Clave has Idris covered.

Not if they're looking in the wrong place.

Valentine used to take me to this cabin in Bronson Forest when I was a kid.

And you think he's hiding there?

Probably not, no.

But I bet you we find more in that cabin than we do in Staten Island.

Jace, you need to tell someone.

Yeah, I did.

The Clave denied my request for a portal.

What about Magnus?

Magnus? He's still in the Sealy Court with Luke.

Unfortunately,

Portaling the Idris without approval isn't exactly sanctioned under the

There's not a lot of warlocks stupid enough to risk it.

I was thinking, if I could find a warlock that could get me close enough

Swiss border, I could hike it.

It's only about 30 miles.

What if

we

don't need a warlock?

What are you talking about?

What are you doing?

It worked!

That's impossible!

Obviously it's not.

You're thinking of that cabin, right?

Yeah, but just wait a second, okay?

Come on, the portal's about to close. I'm not sure I can open another one.

No, please don't!

You okay?

I'm fine.

I just fell a little damp.

Did we make it?

Yeah.

Welcome to Idris.

How is this possible?

How did you manage to escape?

Frankly, I'm a little bit disappointed that you haven't figured it out already.

You should remember Azathel.

Azathel.

So you're the reason that demon switched me with the warlock.

Not exactly.

You see, I made a deal with him.

I summoned him out of Eden, and he helped me escape.

Once I was free,

I return the favor.

I'm afraid it's not a very nice place.

The first day I was there, they started burning my skin.

Just one layer at a time.

I said I was too pretty for their world.

made me hideous.

But they also taught me how to use my demon blood, how to draw from its power.

See, I may be grotesque in my own skin, but with it I have power that you could

only dream of.

Then why keep the Verilak boy's visage if you're weaker for it?

I think it rather suits me.

Don't you?

As does the accent.

A bit more charming than a demonic beast with burnt flesh.

Charlie, I know what I did to you was horrific, but let me make it up to you.

Azazel wanted the Mortal Cup.

Unchain me, and it's yours.

You still don't understand, do you?

See, I don't give a damn about your mortal instruments. I never have.

I used to say that they should attack on the light with a gun in order to gain

access to the Institute.

Whatever he did after that, however amusing, it was none of my concern.

And then you would have just brought me here if you were going to torture me to

death.

So what are you planning?

Don't worry about it.

We'll find out soon enough.

I still can't believe you made a portal wound.

You said that already.

You don't understand.

It took warlocks thousands of years to learn how to use portals. And you just

improvised one.

I want to get out of here before dark.

These woods are home to several packs of notoriously feral werewolves.

Valentine certainly has interesting ideas about what's kid -friendly.

Even he wouldn't let me go near the lake.

You okay?

Yeah, I'm fine.

I wonder what Otzi might be able to help you out with that.

Oh, no.

I don't have my cell -A. I must have dropped it when I hit the water.

Don't look at me.

Left mine in New York. Someone pulled me through the portal before I had time to

get it. You know what? It's okay.

I mean, we don't even need a cell -A. You can activate your rooms without

right? Yeah, I mean...

You know, theoretically.

And you were giving me crap about my portal.

I didn't say I couldn't do it.

Yeah, on second thought, my Stella might actually come in handy.

We should head back to the lake and see if we can find it.

Dad, what's going on?

Nothing. Why?

Max missed his training session this morning because he wouldn't leave his

He said you screamed at him and told him to give the whole thing a secret.

You barely ever raise your voice.

What could Max possibly have done?

Nothing. It's just... With Valentine free, I've been under a lot of stress

lately and... Dad.

My Max sure seems to have a talent for finding trouble.

I was reading through a file of private fire messages that I'd received from the

Inquisitor. And, well, you know the rest.

Private fire messages? It's not what you think.

It's above your security clearance. I've said too much already.

Going somewhere?

Are you going somewhere?

Yeah, I'm coming with you.

No way. Look, I really appreciate the offer, but Yom Kippur is not a bring

friends kind of holiday.

I wasn't asking.

I mean, I didn't even tell my family I was dating Clary. And how would I

this? Hey, Mom, meet Maya, my werewolf friend who knows I turned a guy into

dust, and now she's kind of worried that I might hurt you, or tell you I'm a

vampire, or... Let me look.

Just let me come with you.

Come on.

Not showing up to temple is one thing, but I'm not waiting for Simon to start

eating.

Hey, guys.

Hi, I'm Maya.

Huh, Simon's girlfriend.

Honestly, as long as Dad apologizes to Max, I don't care what the fire message

said. I know you're still upset about the whole affair, but think about it.

Valentine escaped under our watch, and yet Dad somehow convinced the Inquisitor

to let you keep your job?

What kind of leverage could he possibly have to do something like that?

Did he say anything?

Not really.

He said he was in love.

Are you okay?

Something's wrong with Chase.

By the angel.

What happened here?

Is that a lake?

You don't think there's any chance the lake can float, right?

Jay?

Perfect. Now I've lost you too.

Oh, God.

James!

Don't waste your strength.

Oh, um... Did you forget that you kept me prisoner in this godforsaken basement

for more than a year?

I spent every single one of those nights fighting against those chains. If there

was a way out, I would have found it.

Jonathan, you brought it on yourself.

Are you sure about that?

You killed that Timberworth boy.

I had no idea what was next.

If I would be next, I would never have killed my own father.

Albert will.

You spurred my interest in science, gave me my first chemistry set, taught me

the basic laws of physics.

When I saw Albert on the bridge, I was just curious.

Would a 32 -foot fall kill a boy?

I guess it will.

Your experiments started to attract attention.

I had no choice but to send you away. Don't lie to me.

Of course you had a choice.

No. You just chose the other boy.

No. You sent me to hell to protect him.

That's not true.

I sent you to Eden because you were out of control.

I was out of control?

Yes.

You made me this way!

So you were saying that Luke introduced the two of you?

Yeah.

So does that mean you're friends with Clary?

I haven't heard from her in ages. Is she okay?

She's good.

So how's the band?

It's been great. We're actually more of a solo act now.

Ah, so no more fake blood glitch hop shows.

His new stuff's actually really good. You guys should listen to it.

So I'm guessing you're not Jewish.

Mom!

Uh, no, but I'll convert if it means more kugel.

I like her.

So give us the deep.

How long has this been going on?

Yeah. What do you do for a living? That kind of thing.

And Maya is a mixologist.

Well, the bartending is more of a part -time thing.

I'm taking online classes for college.

Rain biology. The dream is to transfer to the Columbia program.

Cool.

You know, we used to take trips down to Margate when we were kids.

But we could never get Simon to go in that water.

Yeah, he had a bit of a... Phobia of jellyfish.

I was five years old.

He's worried somebody's going to have to pee on him if he gets done.

I was five.

Okay, enough, the two of you, enough.

You know, I think it's time for our Yom Kippur tradition where we share what it

is we're atoning for.

Mom, come on, that's not really a thing. I mean, like, it should be private.

Well, in our family, it's a thing.

Simon's father started this tradition 13 years ago, and now we keep it alive in

his memory.

Who's going to go first?

Okay, I'll start.

The thing that I regret most from this past year is that I had a relapse with

drinking, and it was really hard on everyone.

And for that, I am...

I'm very sorry.

See?

That wasn't hard.

Who's next?

What are these things?

They look like portal shards.

So Chase and Clary are at this beach?

Assuming they went through together, but none of it makes sense. How were they

able to create a portal inside the Institute?

Clearly it wasn't a normal portal.

Whatever it was, there was something strange about this portal for the wards

to recognize it.

That should explain these.

This isn't a beach.

It's Lake Lynn.

The Lake Lynn.

How can you tell?

Because Jace requested a portal to Idris this morning. He thought he might have

a lead on Valentine.

But the Clave denied it.

Seems like he went anyway.

We need to help him.

You have to get that portal approved.

I'll try my best.

But the Clave... I don't care what the Clave says.

Jace is in trouble.

I agree.

But as long as you're acting head of this institute, you need to remain here.

Jace is family. You can't expect Alec to abandon his parabatai.

No.

That's right.

I need to put the Institute first.

Listen, I'm not abandoning anyone.

I'm sending my best Shadowhunter to go and rescue them.

Get me a portal to Idris.

I will.

But there's something you should know about this lake.

Hello, Clary.

You don't recognize me?

Is that real?

I was weaker when we last met.

Thanks to you, I have recovered.

What are you doing here?

Jonathan is alive.

Jace?

Is he okay?

Where is he?

I can only direct you toward the correct path.

Must walk at yourself.

Ethereal, please.

I will do anything, but tell me where he is.

Ethereal!

So who's next?

Simon?

Actually, I'd like to go.

Being around your family makes me realize that maybe I haven't been the

greatest daughter.

Actually, it's been years since I've spoken to either of my parents.

My brother was the favorite.

So when he died, I felt like my

parents kind of forgot about me altogether.

And eventually I ran away and I haven't talked to him since.

The thing is, I don't think it's the anger that's keeping me from talking to

them. It's because of the guilt.

I am sure your parents still love you.

And they have not forgotten about you.

I know I will love my kids forever, no matter what.

All right, you're next, Simon.

Um... I did a lot of bad stuff this year.

But... I think I can move past it.

I'm not gonna let it ruin my life.

So, what did you do?

Did you don't park the van?

Did you smoke weed?

I, um... Word.

I gotta pick it.

She'd go to a Blade Runner marathon, and he ditched me for another girl.

I'm guessing Alec got my message, huh?

I had to do something to get your guys' attention. Can I use your stelae?

What happened to Clary?

Thank you.

I don't know.

One minute we were looking for her stelae by the lake, the next she was

You didn't drink any other lake water, did you?

No, Clary did.

What?

Lake Lynn has hallucinogenic properties, and Arati should be able to cure her,

but we need to get to her soon.

Or what?

She could lord their mind forever.

Do you remember my eighth birthday?

It was the day you gave me my first seraph blade.

It was at least an hour until I found the blood.

In the snow.

I thought something terrible had happened.

But it wasn't my blood, was it, Father?

By the time you arrived, I'd already skinned the beast.

A rather large werewolf, as I recall.

See, I wanted to give you its pelt of a trophy.

I wanted you to be proud.

Out of everything that you told me.

Killing was always what I was best at.

It's ironic, isn't it?

That that should be the reason you came to hate me.

The reason you sent me to Eden.

You're right.

What happened to you, it was my fault.

But I never hated you.

I feel exactly the same way.

Enjoy your time in Eden.

Who are you?

Jace. I don't know you.

You're confused.

I'm here to help you.

Just hold still.

Where's Jace?

Look, we're not going to hurt you. You're not going to get the champ.

Hey, stop, stop. Look, I know you're scared, but it's me. It's Jace.

Let go of me. Hey, it's okay.

Everything's going to be okay.

He's got word from Isabelle.

Jace and Clary are safe.

They'll be in Valentine's cabin shortly.

That's good to hear.

Hopefully they can recover something we can use to track them.

Dad, thank you.

Izzy never would have made it to Idris without your help.

Alec, you and Isabel and Max and Jace are the most important people in the

to me.

I know I've lost your trust.

I hope I can earn it back.

Why are you still lying to us?

You told Max to keep a secret about some fire messages.

Yes, but... Whatever it is, Just keep Max out of it.

I sent those fire messages to Imogen to make sure that you would remain the head

of the Institute.

So you're protecting me because I'm a Lightwood.

No.

It's because I've always admired your courage and your honesty.

The stuff that great leaders are made from.

Why should I believe you?

What did you send to Imogen?

keeping a massive secret of their own.

And I threatened to reveal it.

I didn't tell you because I didn't want you to have to carry the burden of lying

to people that you love.

I know how hard that can be. Dad, just tell me. But you cannot repeat this

secret to anyone.

Not even Magnus.

Promise me, Alec.

I can't promise that.

Either you trust me to be a leader or you don't.

Cleve lied about the Soul Sword.

They never recovered it from Valentine's attack on the Institute.

They don't have it.

They never did.

Then who does?

Oh, I bet you'd love to get your hands on your precious Soul Sword now.

Well, you're in luck.

I'm going to be sending it with you.

Considering my demon blood, it doesn't seem wise to be such a powerful weapon

just lying around.

Even if it is deactivated.

Seems fitting end to you both, don't you think?

You always cared more about the mortal instruments than you did your own son.

That's not true.

Despite everything I've done, I have always, always cared about you.

Do not lie to me.

You truly... He truly cared about me. He would never send me away.

I made a mistake.

It was Jace that was the fear of the spirit. Shut up!

The sword still compels the truth.

Jonathan, not a day goes by that I don't think about you.

Or I am not haunted by that decision I made to send you to Edom.

I have always dreamed of creating the ultimate warrior.

And now that dream is a reality.

I've always been my greatest creation, son.

Always.

I haven't been to this cabin in years, but I'm pretty sure it's just packed

hill.

There it is.

Someone was just here.

Too late.

So, I love the jellyfish stuff.

Maybe we keep that between us.

Your secret's safe with me.

Thanks.

Thank you for coming tonight.

Despite my many objections, I could not have gotten through that dinner without

you.

Quick thinking. Marine biology.

I think you totally pulled it off.

Because it's true.

I'm taking classes online.

Really? I had no idea you were interested in it.

I'm pretty sure there's a lot you don't know about me.

I'm pretty sure you're right.

I never asked.

But I guess I've been kind of self -absorbed lately.

A little.

So?

So?

It's late.

I hadn't noticed.

Vampire.

Good night, Simon.

Good night.

Even if Dad's intentions are good, these secrets only end up making things

worse. Trust me, I know that damaged secrets can cause more than anyone.

But if it got out there that the clave lied about the soul sword, it could mean

the end of the Accords.

Maybe you're right.

I've got to do something.

Are you going to tell Magnus?

What's up?

Nothing.

I'm just really glad you're okay.

Did you find anything in Valentine's books?

These aren't books.

They're journals.

Valentine needs to keep these on the highest shelf in the cabin.

I remember trying to read one once to see what all the fuss was about.

I hate you got to me before I could even open it.

That was the last time I went back to that cabin.

Now I know why.

Jonathan Christopher.

These are about you.

Morgan Stern.

Herondale.

You were...

You were opposite ends of the same experiment?

There are hundreds of pages of notes, years of work of research. These

journals are... They're all that's left of my childhood.

But... Wait, Chase, this was ten years ago.

Jonathan died in a fire when he was an infant. How could Valentine still be

studying him if he was already dead?

He's alive.

Suriel wasn't talking about you.

He was talking about my brother.

He's still alive.

Jonathan.

Dinner is served.
